Last Game of 2016

Sponsored by the sociable but slightly roguish BlogMeister.

And so it is the Return of the Blog for the last game of 2016.

though i have to say it will be quite a short one, as very few photos were taken, and to be honest there isn't a great deal of info or fines to report.

Now that's not to say we didn't all have a great day,,,, but i reckon it was the 'calm before the storm' for the New Year's Eve Festivities.

I hope you all saw it in with true Aussie/Kiwi/English/German/Irish/South African fashion!!!!!!

Boy we are a multi-cultural club aren't we????

What i can report is Keith & Carol's 3rd cards were recorded,,,,, and we welcome them to the SOS, with open arms and empty beer glasses.

So please feel free to 'look after' the Committee,,,,, especially the BlogMeister.




And what else is there to report, what other important news do we have for you????

,,,,,,,,, only the matter of:- 

Brett Pretty Boy Fordham v Paul The Pickled Gardner 

in 

 Battle for the Bottle 

(aka lowest handicap for 2016)

It came down to not only the last game of the season, where we were both on exactly the same handicap, but also to whatever was going to 'drop off' our GolfLink scores as poetically we both scored the same amount of stableford points on Saturday.

And it gives me awesome please to announce that The Pickled One came out the winner!!!!

Waaaahhhhaaaaayyyyyyyy,,,,,, "Get them in son,,, you're buying fella!!!"

So now i suppose those that didn't play might want to know what happened on the day,,,,, 

The Results

Since my scoring staff weren't available i have to rely purely on my memory, which you all know is shocking, and as such will be far from complete, but i can announce with a splendid score the winner is:-

A marvellous score of 42 points!

Other Comments (as there are no Fines of the Week)

El Presidente proudly mentioned that a donation of $200, as collected from the fines in November, was donated to the Honours Avenue Foundation
for the Remembered Armed Forces.
Great effort people, and thanks from all for digging deep.

Malcolm-- look at this good looking rooster in his youthful aeronautical prime.
Guess how old he is?
Answers will be revealed on sat

Glen-- for propelling his away round the golf course by wind power alone.

Stan-- for gibbering/talking/wittering for the entire 18 holes, and then disappearing early before we could get our own back in the bar.
